Thank you a lot Ms.Twu. This video was really helpful .

[@shooulber]

Thank you Ms. Twu, that was very helpful. I especially liked the interesting fact about the battle near the Falklands.

Thanks : ) I am glad that I can help.

can u please tell me why air-planes are not affected when travelling from equator to north or south : their route will remain straight with their speed and not diagonal ?

And here I am watching your video after 12 years of upload😅

In reality there is no inertial frame at all by its definition. The earth is accelerating/spinning, It is also accelerating around the sun and so on. There is no disputing that. The question is only about force of friction. If the earth spinned fast enough rest be assured that we will all be flying. If you don't spin a disc fast enough, or drive a car around a corner gently, you will feel nothing. That is the truth. Another thing, imagine you are standing on a disc and you have no friction with the disc at all, totally slippery as if you are hovering. The disc begins to rotate, you will stay right where you are no matter how massive you are for the most part, although you will move some only because of gravity pulling you down and make you touch the surface of the disc. Or if you stand on a 10 miles diameter large disc and it begins to move you will hardly notice it, especially if it begins to move gently.

Blue Ocean - Whether you feel the acceleration or not is immaterial. You also appear to have a problem with friction and frames of reference. Nothing is friction free so if you were placed, non moving by reference to another frame, a on a spinning surface you will eventually accelerate and match the speed of the surface. If I didn’t know any better I would say you were a Flattard.
